To understand how it works, it helps to understand the life cycle of malaria. The malaria pathogen(病原体) is a parasite that grows inside humans. It's transmitted via mosquitoes that flit from person to person, sucking blood (the parasites also reproduce inside the ...
A new global sense of urgency and sustained commitment are needed to contain the threat of this ancient and emerging pathogen. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The author thanks Joseph Hamilton and Roche Laboratories (Nutley, NJ) for defraying the cost to reproduce the color plate of malaria parasites, and William...
The expansion of such research is important, especially now while there is potential for in-depth exploration of the life cycle, immunity and pathogenesis using systems biology, immunology, and vaccinology approaches. The Malaria Host–Pathogen Interaction Center (MaHPIC): building infrastructure for ...

Host–pathogen interactions / Immunological techniques Christian R Engwerda, Michael F Good, in Current Opinion in Immunology, 2005 Malaria remains an enormous burden for the developing world, in terms of infection, morbidity and mortality [1–3]. Plasmodium falciparum is the most common cause of ...
We here describe similar tubular structures in the malaria pathogen Plasmo- dium falciparum, which emerge from the surfaces of the forming gametes upon gametocyte activation in the mosquito midgut. The filaments can exhibit a length of > 100 µm and contain the F-actin isoform actin 2. They...
Toxoplasma gondiiis an important parasite pathogen in immuno-compromized individuals and during pregnancy. Like malaria parasites, it belongs to the phylum Apicomplexa, with the advantage that it is considerably more susceptible to experimental manipulation by standard molecular genetic approaches [156]. ...
[1,12,42]. This raises questions about parasite species identification if the same pathogen is found in unusual avian hosts. Molecular characterization is helpful in diagnosis of malaria infections, and has been developed for detection of some avianPlasmodiumspecies [21,40]. Molecular markers are ...
